This page covers biological details of component Barrington's Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Metencephalon -> Metencephalic Motor Nuclei (HT.MN) -> Barrington's Nucleus (LAC.HT.BR) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area
• Role: subcortical.motor.flexor
• Function: Supraspinal regulation of urination
• Notes to function: Sends projections to Sacral Precerebellar Nucleus
